DraftKings college football showdown picks November 21

We have our first DraftKings college football showdown slate in almost a month tonight. Over the last couple of weeks, there have been at least two games per night. Tonight the ACC takes the stage for itself in Atlanta when the Bees welcome the battered North Carolina State Wolfpack.

This is a great matchup for Georgia Tech since they want to be a passing team and the Wolfpack are missing their top four corners. That may be a place to look when choosing a captain.

Last night I whiffed on the quarterbacks to finish out of the money. Everyone had the Buffalo backfield duo. My Kato Nelson dart throw hit the wall instead of the board.

The one notable difference in the DraftKings college football showdown tournament is that you cannot choose a defense. I’ll tell you that this is for obvious reasons. Defense is not a college level course for most schools. Don’t fret though! It just opens more offensive options.

Kickers are really only worth it if you see it being a high scoring game or a game of field goals. In this matchup, I would vote for the latter.

I expect this game to be on the lower end of the scoring spectrum, so it is especially important to get the key pieces of each offense for this DraftKings college football showdown matchup. That’s hard to do right? Especially when you can’t punt with a defense.

Not necessarily. There are some sneaky plays in here that can open everything up. Let’s dig in to this interesting DraftKings college football showdown!
